Marketing Tips

Make your advert as eye catching as possible and include any logos or wording that customers will relate to your company.
In order to gauge the success of an advert, include an incentive to attract potential customers. This may be in the form of a voucher or a reference to quote for a discount to apply.
A package of adverts will have more impact than a single advert and customers are more likely to remember your name if they require your product or services in the future. Packages are also much better value for money.
